"It doesn't matter if Lian'er is confused, but why are the minions around her so confused?" Ji Heng squinted slightly, blocking the cold light in his eyes, "I carefully selected those minions to serve Lian'er, I hoped that they could help Lian'er compete for hegemony in the harem, but they couldn't keep Lian'er's fetus, and even helped Lian'er kill people indiscriminately, it was stupid!" ”

The Zhu family must be dealt with, but this kind of deal can only come in secret, and there is no handle!

Those minions are all trained and should understand this truth, but not only did they fail to stop Lian'er, but they also allowed Lian'er to get into trouble, which is an unforgivable sin!

What made him even more annoyed was that even if these minions couldn't stop Lian'er, they at least had to report it to the Ji family in time, but they couldn't even do this little thing, they were just stupid and waste!

What is he doing with these minions who are useless and only bad?

Mrs. Ji's heart trembled: "Master, what do you mean?" ”

Ji Heng said coldly: "It's all changed!" ”

His so-called "exchange" is not to dismiss or sell these minions, but to "clear".

Mrs. Ji thought that those slaves had been waiting for her and her daughter for many years, and they could be regarded as intimate subordinates, so she was "replaced" like this, and she was a little reluctant: "Master, it is precisely because of the bad situation that it is inconvenient to change people." Think about it, the people of the past must have done better than the current ones? And they don't know the situation in the palace, maybe they will cause more trouble! I still have to be cautious about this! ”

Ji Heng thought for a while and said, "Even if you don't replace all of them, you must replace some of them." ”

He paused, his eyes were very sharp: "At least replace those who are too loyal to Lian'er." ”

It stands to reason that being loyal to your daughter is a good thing, so why should you "replace it"?

Only Madame Ji understood what he meant.

A slave who is too loyal to his daughter will choose to stand on his daughter's side when his daughter's words and deeds are contrary to the orders and interests of the Ji family - just like this time, the daughter secretly did such a thing, and the Ji family was unaware of it, it can be thought that the people around the daughter only acted on the daughter's orders, and even the Ji family did not pay attention to it!

She sighed, "I understand, I'll take care of this." ”

In addition to sending Fu'er into the palace, she also had to choose the servants who waited for her daughter.

Ji Heng waved his hand: "It's been hard for you this time, you go down and prepare first, I still have some things to do." ”

Mrs. Ji wanted to say something, but her heart was also very heavy at this moment, so she stopped asking and turned to go out.

Then, Ji Heng called the housekeeper: "Send someone immediately to kill all the wild dogs raised by the concubine Niangniang outside the palace." ”

The "wild dog" here refers to the killer given to Ji Lian by the Ji family.

Although these killers are Ji Lian's, it is the Ji family who raises them on weekdays, and the Ji family knows their details very well.

The butler didn't ask why, but went out.

Whether it was Mrs. Ji or the housekeeper, they all carried out Ji Heng's orders very thoroughly.

As soon as Mrs. Ji left the study, she went to find Ji Fu and explained to her in detail about entering the palace, while the housekeeper disguised herself and sent a few henchmen to invite the Jianghu killers who often cooperated, and went to the residence of the "wild dog" separately.

Ji Heng thought that he found it in time, and he still had time to remedy it, but ......

When his housekeeper arrived at the destination with a group of professional killers, several people had already gathered around the destination.

These people lurked in the hidden shadows, quietly and carefully observing the houses in front of them.

The house is a rather large courtyard, with high walls and black tiles, mottled walls, hidden in a grove that looks a little gloomy and gray even in this season, and looks rustic and ancient, and there is nothing special about it.

But now they were frightened birds, and they did not dare to approach at all, and they hid like rats so tightly that they did not dare to breathe out loud.

It was at this moment that they saw a group of figures dressed in ordinary clothes, but as gloomy as a grove, approaching the courtyard, and these people neither knocked nor entered through the door, but climbed up the high wall like monkeys, and climbed over the wall again.

They saw the weapons they had drawn as they climbed to the top of the wall.

Fierce, tyrannical, murderous - they all felt it.

Are these people going to kill people?

They were all a little frightened, and they didn't dare to move at all.

Most of the men climbed over the wall and entered, and only a few were around the courtyard to control the wind.

These "little mice" lurking in the shadows don't know what's going on inside the courtyard walls, but they're sure it's definitely not going to be a good thing.

After about a quarter of an hour, the gate of the courtyard was opened, and the men came out, closed the gate, lit the torches, and threw them into the high wall.

Flames soon rose from the walls.

There were a number of farmhouses in the area, but they were far apart, separated by woods, and had little contact with each other, and although the house was on fire, no one called for help, so the fire did not cause any commotion.

The men stared at the courtyard until the huge courtyard was in flames, and then they parted ways.

The "little mice" were sure that everyone in the house had been killed, so that there was no sound when the fire broke out.

They were so frightened that they turned to wood and did not move for a long time.

However, not everyone is like this, and two or three of them reacted in time to follow those terrible murderers.

One of them was more shrewd, and from the very beginning he had his eyes on the old man who had been directing outside the house.

As soon as the old man left, he quietly followed.

He was afraid of being discovered, so he didn't dare to get close, and there was no need to get close—because he had Gu birds that could fly after their designated targets.

In this way, he followed the old man until he reached the vicinity of the Ji Mansion, and then saw the old man enter the Ji Mansion.

Himefu? He was so shocked that he didn't dare to think about it and ran back.

At the same time, his companions finally began to investigate the house after the killers had left completely.

Because the house had been burned down, they didn't find too many clues, only found that the people living in the house were very low-key, rarely went out, and never interacted with nearby farmers, and the farmers in this area were tenants who did not live for a long time, and did not know the owner of the yard.

But they can be sure of one thing: the people in the courtyard were killed and then burned, and there were as many as twenty or thirty corpses!

Why are they here, and investigating this house?

Because, the place where Himeko quietly left the palace and went yesterday is here.

They were sent by the Zhu family to follow and investigate Himeko's whereabouts, but found the house.

Who lives in this house? Why is Himeko here? Why were the people in the house killed? Is it really the Ji family who started it?

One clue after another and doubts, report to Zhu You.

Zhu You pinched the turtle shell in his hand, gritted his teeth, and ordered the maid: "Use all your skills, as well as all the medicines in the palace, be sure to catch Jizi and ask the inside story!" ”

She won't do anything to Himeko openly, nor will she torture Himeko to extract a confession, she is the strongest witch, and there are ways to make people tell all the secrets without knowing anything!

If she is sure that Ji Lian and the Ji family are related to the assassination of the Zhu family, she will definitely not let Ji Lian go, and the Zhu family will definitely not let go of the Ji family!
